I ordered the Black Tips for my red BRZ. They were on backorder but got UPS notice they should be in tomorrow. I had these on my Corvette and loved them. Quiet for pleasure at highway speeds but a sweet sound when you push the throttle. I also heard good things (dyno and word of mouth) about the Corsa CAI. That should be here with the exhaust. I picked it over the Takeda. Time will tell.

I'd consider this one too if I didn't have the Perrin 2.5" already. Corsa has always been a quality exhaust.

Maybe its because I'm young and obnoxious but I cant help to ask this question. I understand why people want a non-droney exhaust but why settle for something this tame? I feel like you wouldn't be able to notice a very significant difference between this and a TRD

How is this settling? Its a quality exhaust, with a great sound. The TRD, at least in Canada, costs the same as the Corsa.

Oh shit, that makes some sense then. The listing I was looking at on subispeed they were asking almost $200 more than the TRD (USD)

I will say that the Corsa does have nice tips. I've never been a fan of the awkward dorito TRD tips.

Used to be part of the loud exhaust crew when I was younger. It's fun, I get it, but when...
  • you don't want a cop to instantly look your way because he hears you coming
  • you can barely hear your back seat passengers/they can't hear you
  • no one really wants to ride with you because it's obnoxious
  • you can't sneak out of your house or to a chick's place at night
  • your girlfriend has to plug her ears to talk on the phone
  • you just want to drive and not deal with fuck wits trying to race you or fuck with you as you are cruising along
...all of that gets old fast and a little disheartening.

Some people dig that sort of shit and live it forever, I just grew out of it.

I get it if this isn't your DD, and you only drive it for fun, or if you solely autox/track/drag it.

For something you will be living with day in and day out, it's best to just get an exhaust that has minimal/no drone in the cabin, isn't stupid loud when you're just cruising along, and sounds great when you actually start getting on the throttle.

Quoted for truth. I once drove to work with a coworker who had a straight piped Evo X. It was awful. I felt like my brain was numb like 10 minutes into the drive. That was the big driving force for me to get something that's tame while cruising, but still makes some noise under WOT.

I can agree for sure. When I had taken my muffler delete off and ordered those new parts for my dealer to install it was a whole new world. I daily mine. I'm sure I'll literally grow out of it considering I'm only 18.
